Vitria Technology and Red Hat have announced a collaboration to accelerate service-oriented architecture (SOA) solutions to the marketplace.

Vitria will offer Red Hat’s open source JBoss Enterprise Application Platform with Business Accelerator, its newly launched open SOA integration suite. Both companies will provide service and support.

 “We give customers the freedom to choose individual SOA components to create the best solution for their particular needs,” commented Dale Skeen, Chief Executive Officer of Vitria. “The new Vitria products are designed to co-exist in a heterogeneous environment so customers can leverage their existing infrastructure investments. The addition of JBoss to our community of complementary solutions enables us to ensure that customers have the ability to choose the best of breed when they choose our products.”
